KGF Chapter 2 movie launch live news: The highly anticipated Yash actioner KGF Chapter 2 will hit screens on April 14. The film, which also stars Bollywood actors Raveena Tandon and Sanjay Dutt in pivotal roles, will be clashing with Tamil superstar Vijay’s latest release Beast at the box office.
In a recent interview with Film Companion, KGF star Yash claimed that KGF 2 is as relatable as any other generic slice of life films being made today, if not more, despite its heavy-duty action sequences.
The actor said, “KGF is a story about a mother who has suffered a lot in her life and wants her son to not live like her. She wants him to be rich at least when he dies. That is a relatable point for the whole of the country. Only 1 per cent of people who are privileged, only they may not relate to it.”
KGF Chapter 2 is the final installment in the KGF franchise. Both the films have been written and directed by Prasanth Neel.
A Twitter user named @sagar_gamer7 revealed that KGF 2 is already housefull. He wrote, "#kgfchapter2 hamare yaha Threater full ho gaye hai, agle 2 din wait krna padega yaar but this movie will create history. #KGF2 #RockingStarYash"
Yash called KGF "a big and important journey in our lives." During a promotional, Yash said, "Telugu cinema is all about larger-than-life fantasy, and I love them. The kind of reception they give to every cinema and actors is fantastic. I have huge respect for that."

Let us also not make the mistake of comparing Yash’s KGF: Chapter 2 box office performance with the Hindi version of Beast. At this stage, the Hindi release of Beast, under the title Raw, is just a formality, carried out maybe due to peer pressure.

Trade analyst Taran Adarsh told indianexpress.com, 'KGF 2 is going to open like a tsunami. The advance bookings have been terrific. It has already beaten RRR in terms of advance booking. By far, KGF 2 has received the highest post-pandemic bookings, but it is still competing with pre-pandemic advance bookings.”

Yash told PTI, "Generally, an actor gets the opportunity to be an overnight star or he would have earned it gradually, going step by step. So if it doesn’t happen in your debut, then eventually you get it but it takes time. I took a lot of time to establish myself and then got the success. After becoming successful in the Kannada industry, I got to know how it feels to be an overnight star with KGF. Outside of Karnataka, not many people would have heard about me before KGF. But they accepted me. So KGF brought that change in my life."
